Description: Google Chrome is a freeware browser. Known for being blazing fast due to the use of WebKit. This is the same technology as Safari which helps to render web sites. And for all you sneaky little spies out there, Google Chrome sports the incognito mode. This mode allows you to browse the web behind closed doors so to speak. In incognito mode you can open another tab or window and the information is not stored in the web history. It is a customizable browser that allows you to change the look of the background as well as install and use different applications associated with Chrome.
